"Choosing Life" // 2nd Sunday in Lent (3/1/26)

A JOURNEY often has a sense of adventure and uncertainty to it. Are you someone who likes the security of a plan and a good map - are you one of those rare folks who thrive in the risk of it all? Abraham was prompted by God to gather his entire family, everything he owned, and take a major leap into the unknown.Most of us like knowing what's around the corner, but we rarely get that luxury. Life is just unpredictable. A sense of trust - of faith, actually - is required to keep stepping forward.And the path we choose makes all the difference. When we choose to walk the path of life, toward God and with God, our journey begins with a promise. We'll see this Sunday (with identical services at 9 and 10:30 AM), that from Genesis to John, a theme emerges; God initiates - God promises - God provides - and we trust.We are people of promise. We walk without seeing everything. We trust without controlling everything. We believe before we hold it.Lent is not about climbing toward God. It is about trusting the God who has already come toward us. This 2nd Sunday in Lent, let’s journey toward Him in prayer, in worship, in trust, and in faith!Sunday 9 & 10:30 AM // 70 Stephens Ln.
